As I lay my foot on the crackling leaves of a breezy autumn day, I inhale the aroma of beautiful nature spirit surrounding me. I smell each and every tree, from the top of its bushy branches, all the way to its deep roots. I smell the soil, damp from the fall rain. The smell of the pretty flowers soothe my nose bringing me smiles and happiness all throughout the trail. All of these nature smells combine to make a unique, but wonderful identity that is one of a kind. That is where I felt a sudden connection between my inner soul and me. My life is composed of all different types of influences. From family, friends, teachers, and even other cultures. Just like the smell of the forest, my life is full of new and spontaneous events. Taking adventures and exploring the world, without the risk of worrying about what others may say reflects my personality. Even with the growing pollution and destruction of the nature around us, the forest does not forget to protect and nourish what is most meaningful to it. This makes me realize how important it is in life to keep good relationships with others and to always be open-minded about the world. I live my life with excitement and unexpectedness. I want to pop the bubble around me and show the world who I really am. As much as people love the amazing air in the forest, I want people to also breath in my purity and liveliness. The smell of the forest will always change, but the core beauty of it will always remain; unique and fresh.
